We have needed things in our home put in more order and a lot of stuff purged for a long time, but we didn't anticipate that inviting the full-time Elders to live in our home to live would be the way we would really get it going. We learned of the Woods Cross Elders' need to find a new place to live less than a week ago. We felt it was the right thing for us to have them live in our basement. Once we had made the decision we knew it was right and a lot of preparation work began including having a shower installed over the existing bathtub downstairs. The sorting and purging have only just begun, but we're making progress after 39 years of accumulation. Our goal is to purge almost half of our possessions.
The Elders seemed very excited when they moved in today and saw their accommodations. Before they left to take care of teaching duties, they asked the Lord for a special blessing to be on us and our home. And how blessed we feel already!
